Experiments about the science of ideas

Noetic Science refers to the development of human willpower by studying the shape and direction of human thought waves and proving the material basis of human thoughts, thereby effectively utilizing human thoughts and improving human intelligence. ideological awakening or change the objective material world. Specific research projects include spontaneous healing of the body, psychological abilities, immortality of consciousness, etc. It is a discipline that combines science with what people call the occult.

As for experiments in the science of ideas, the more famous ones are the experiments on ice crystals:

Dr. Masaru Emoto and others from the IHM Research Institute in Japan have been conducting high-speed experiments since 1994. Photography techniques to observe water crystallization around the world. A few years ago, they published experimental results in the book "Messages from Water", which proved that beautiful messages with "kindness, gratitude, sacredness", etc., will cause water to crystallize into beautiful shapes, while "resentment, pain, anxiety", etc. Bad information will appear discrete and ugly. And whether it is words, sounds, thoughts, etc., they all carry the energy of messages.

Once their experiment was announced, it immediately shocked the world of philosophy, natural science, social science, life science and religion. However, Emoto Masaru's experimental results could not be confirmed in repeated experiments. Its views are considered pseudoscience by people in the scientific community.

The following is a set of pictures of water crystals:

The School of Engineering Applications at Princeton University in the United States has also conducted special research and experiments on the science of ideas, and published two of the experiments.

The first scientific experiment is to stand two small mirrors opposite each other, and use electronic detection equipment to closely monitor the progress of the experiment. Then randomly find people to use their minds to shorten the distance between the two mirrors, and concentrate on thinking about "getting closer and closer" to the two mirrors. After thousands of people's thoughts, the distance between the two mirrors has indeed become shorter than before.

The second experiment is: randomly find people to use their thoughts to increase the temperature of the electronic thermometer. After thousands of people's thoughts and rigorous statistical data processing, the temperature of the thermometer has indeed increased.

People often use mind training to help us achieve our goals. Ideas mainly control behavior through self-suggestion. This self-suggestion comes from our understanding of ourselves and objective things, and from our understanding of our ability to control behavior. Jordan said, "In addition to insisting on routine training with the players every day, we must also carry out targeted self-strengthening training." "I have to close my eyes before going to bed and after waking up every day and shoot the ball over and over in my mind. , this kind of shooting simulated with thoughts will not be less than 2,000 times a day. "Except for Jordan, most sports stars use this kind of success thought training. Success mindset training has produced world champions one after another. Domestic research on the use of mental training in sports has been continuously published in various newspapers and magazines.

Placebo effect experiments illustrate that people can use the power of the mind to treat pain. Many studies have shown that the placebo effect (the power of thoughts) is real and extremely effective. Many surgeons know that the placebo effect does not exist in surgery, or so they believe. Patients were divided into three groups. Doctors removed damaged cartilage from the knees of patients in the first group. They cleaned the knee joints of the second group of patients and removed anything they thought might be causing inflammation. Both groups received treatments typically given to patients with severe arthritis. A third group of patients underwent a "fake" surgery, in which they were simply anesthetized and told that the surgery had been completed. Doctors cut open their knees and sprinkled them with saline, as they would in normal surgery. Then they sewed the wound shut and pretended they were done with the surgery. The third group, or placebo group, recovered just as well as the other two groups. Another example of the placebo effect is a report from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. The report found that those with severe depression who took the drug had a 50% recovery rate compared to a 32% recovery rate for placebo.

The above experiments provide strong evidence that the human body’s thoughts can change the material world.
